Casino mogul Steve Wynn has displayed a “decades-long pattern of sexual misconduct,” including pressuring employees to “perform sex acts,” the Wall Street Journal reported Friday. Wynn, who is currently the Republican National Committee finance chairman, allegedly paid one manicurist a $7.5-million dollar settlement after insisting she have sex with him. In another incident, he pushed a massage therapist to “massage his penis to climax” repeatedly for several months—which ended with a $1,000 cash payout at the end of each massage session. In a statement to the Journal, Wynn stated, “The idea that I ever assaulted any woman is preposterous.” Wynn recently co-hosted a Fox News special titled The Wise Guys. “We will not be booking Steve Wynn on any potential future installments of The Wise Guys, if it moves forward beyond a one-off special,” a network spokesperson told The Daily Beast in a statement.
